At 10 years old, smooth Tannins. Nice fruit. Perfect Cabernet with steak. February 2024. — 4 months ago
Floral bouquet, smooth, rich and velvety texture, hint of strawberry and tart plum, light yet rich enough to pair with a creamy pasta dish. — 12 hours ago
High country Nebbiolo with all the mineral, herbal, floral, leathery fixings — 4 months ago
Hits the tongue bone dry initially and then slowly releases green apple, honey dew, mineral, and lime. Creamy finish. The blend is dominated by Melon decBourgogne (curiously from Loire) with no vintage year per se. Bio dynamic and enjoyable. — 9 months ago
A beautiful red. Rich and flavouful. — 4 years ago
Elegant, understated, fresh. black currant & cassis, a hint of anise, nicely integrated wood. Enticing.
On the palate this is rich, creamy yet restrained & savoury. Perfectly balanced, juicy, plush tannins, filled with ripe black fruit. Beautiful mouthfeel & nice depth.
This is truly a nice one. — 2 months ago
Perfect Little Valtellina — 7 months ago
This was tasted briefly at pop and pour and was then consumed from the decanter over the next few hours. Whereas the FAY was quite open, plush and had a sweeter fruited profile, this was a bit more brooding and layered. The fruit here is more red and black, with graphite, dark chocolate and mocha aromatics. Really nice depth on the mid palate with quite a strong tannic finish. Black cherries to the core with a streak of savory herbs and red clay down the middle…nice representation of Stag’s Leap district. I can see this improving with another 5-7yrs. — 3 years ago

Bright acidity (med-high), some deep red and purple fruit notes, cassis/currant. Aromatic and medium tannins, smooth yet slightly grippy. Not the longest finish and body is quite light. Almost floral. Drinks like an excited young kid version of a barolo, like an even lighter babaresco. — 2 days ago
